Half Track and Sandstorm look cool together! Reverb is looking really neat too. I hope Whirl gets a repaint I like. Those colors fall pretty flat to me. Crosshairs is a definite improvement over the previous deco. Spastic/Over-Run looks less interesting than I initially thought. He looks forced in all but alt vehicle mode.
:BOT:

First Reverb is an Autobot, then a Decepticon, then an Autobot again. Please, Hasbro, make another Six-Speed. Jolt and Reverb need to be Cybertronized.

Jeez, Reverb looks like garbage, what is that a Unicorn VTOL?

So, wait, HA Dragstrip has an official weapon mode that's a Skyboom shield homage? I almost never buy "non-movie movie" toys, but that is BOUGHT.

I might end up getting Dragstrip, and Reverb looks pretty cool too. I may end up getting him if I can think of a way to fit him into my Classics collection, since he's way too big for my Movie collection. I wonder how he'd be as Classics Afterburner?

Reverb looks really cool in bot mode, but the alt mode is a flying motorcycle? That's...weird. Might buy it anyway though.

Reverb reminds me of a futuristic Vroom... almost enough to be interested. Almost.

Vroom... Now I have to get him for sure. Thanks for pointing that out :P

I've been pleased with how this sub-line is turning out. All the figs look like a lot of fun.

Dragstrip is ridiculous. He can't even roll on his wheels because the shield bits prevent it. WTF?

He doesn't look any better paired up with Megatron either. yikes. Maybe the shield mode is a good idea but i can't tell really. Prolly because it's poorly executed in my opinion.

The bot mode is this figures only saving grace.

On a side note- It's been a while since we've had a Dragstrip with six tires though.

halftrack kinda looks like a beachcomber to me, he might make a nice classics beachcomber stand in if not for the head

Hmmm, going by this picture:

Drag Strip is a bit big for RotF Scouts Dead End & Breakdown. :-(
....but Drag Strip looks like he could go nicely with Deluxe Dead End (which I like better, actually)!

The yellow shield parts pop off, letting all the wheels touch the ground (as in the picture above).

I like this, just out the window with any sense of reality, even in the Bayverse Transformers some of these things look goofy, I like it!

That is indeed interesting... Reverb is also making me wish I hadn't sold off my Cybertron Ransack.

Even though Drag Strip is a pretty perfect G1 homage, I hope he gets a white & blue Mirage style repaint.

If I wasn't slowing down on my collecting I would buy Crosshairs and Reverb in half a heart-beat.
Pretty sure it's been said already but I get a strong M.A.S.K. vibe from the flying motorcycle looking thing they have going there.

Classics? He is pretty much spot on for Rad.

Wow! That's quite a strong resemblance. I suppose it was probably intentional.
